Have you been looking for an inexpensive alternative to a Nintendo DS or Nintendo Wii for Christmas? Here's a cool toy you might want to consider. Read a little bit about it, and then enter to win one of two of these toys for your child!

The Itoys Me2 Online/Exercise Gaming System is a handheld electronic gaming system that retails for just $28.88 at Walmart! Yes, you'll sacrifice some of the cool graphics, but this little gadget is a lot of fun and just might offer some surprising health benefits for your little one at the same time.

The ME2 acts as a kid's pedometer and healthy lifestyle tracker, all while engaging your child with the functionality of a video game system. It's about the size of a small cell phone, and your child earns points for wearing it while taking part in physical activity. He or she then uses the points to play the video games. If your child runs out of points, no more video games until he or she exercises to earn additional points!

Kids can create their own avatar which they can customize hundreds of ways and can also purchase items for them using their points online. They can use their character in online play and download new content to their ME2s from the ME2Universe website.

Features:

Create your own avatar from over 1 million combinations

Download new games onto your handheld to play on the go

Full-color LCD screen

Upload and download capabilities

Clock and calendar

The more points you have, the more you can play the game

Totally customizable

Includes USB cord and belt clip

Requires three "AAA" batteries (not included)

My kids had a blast with this toy! My five-year-old son was running around in circles outside just trying to earn enough points to play. I think this is a valid way to teach kids how to balance time spent playing video games with physical activity, a lesson that will hopefully stick with them as they outgrow the ME2.

So would you like to win one of these cool toys? I've got not one but two ME2s that I need to find a home for!

Every reader has three methods available to enter this contest. Choose one each of any combination of method one, two, or three, for up to a total of 3 entries!!!

1. Leave a comment sharing your thoughts on the ME2! Make sure that I have some way to get in touch with you if you are the winner. (Either leave your email address in your comment or make sure I can access it from your profile.) Don’t worry, I won’t harvest your email addresses or use them for any purpose other than notifying you if you win.

3. Spread the word about this contest in some manner and come back and leave a link in a separate comment. If you have a blog, you can blog about it. But if you don’t have a blog, you’re not at a disadvantage. You could review and Stumble it. You could Twitter it. You could post about it in a forum. Use your imagination!

It is important that you leave a separate comment for each type of entry because each comment is equal to one entry. Sorry to harp on this, but it really is that important to tally and select the winner easily, so I thank you from the bottom of my heart!

This giveaway ends at 11:59 p.m. EDT on Saturday, October 25th. I’ll use Random.org to generate a number that corresponds with the winning comment number and post the winner on Sunday, October 26th. Good luck!

WOW!! I just love the combination of exercise and video games, that is exactly what my 6 year old needs! He is obsessed with video games but I really dislike letting him sit in front of the tv. This would be the most PERFECT thing for him! He would love it!!

WOW. I am so glad that you have informed us about this on your site. I am a stay at home mom and I also homeschool both of my children. I would love to get one of these for my daughter who really wants a nintendo ds (which she has been saving for). She has always been good about working hard for what she wants. This game would reinforce her willingness to get up and get outside.This is the best idea for a childs toy that I have heard of in a very long time. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had no idea what this toy was. I went to target to see what it is, at my local target the price is $39.99 however I then looked around on line and found the price range was from 28.99 (wal-mart) and up
so for this one I say shop-a-round it should be on sale. some time between now and the Holidays .

I haven't seen this toy before. It looks great. My 7 year old twin boys are begging for a nintendo ds and I am not ready for them to have one yet. This would let them have some game time and yet still be physical. Thanks for showing this product.
